RE:New Press Release - Endeavour Comments on Media Reports Orezone news release today is a bit more clear. here is part of it
"Following the radio broadcast, there has been concerns in the mining sector about the government possibly withdrawing mining permits. The Company has been in contact with the government and they have clearly stated that the comments with respect to the potential withdrawal of mining permits was meant only with respect to those companies operating in violation of the laws of Burkina Faso. Companies operating in compliance with the laws of Burkina Faso, which includes Orezone and many other mining companies, will not have their mining permits withdrawn or revoked."
But of course, this is why EDV does not get the same valuation as other big golds that do not have properties in countries such as Burkina Faso
Dinglenuts conveniently missed one important word. "Burkina Faso to withdraw ***some*** mining permits from foreign companies"
